Something like if you are not a manager at 53 there must be something wrong with you? That’s what people keep telling me to watch out for.

Not everyone wants to be a manager -- effective management and effective engineering are two very different and rarely overlapping skill sets. It honestly seems strange to me that transitioning into management is such a common career path for engineers.
